Public disapproval mounts for South Dakota governor and vice-presidential hopeful whose book contains gruesome account
Kristi Noem, the South Dakota governor and Republican vice-presidential hopeful, saw polling numbers plummet after the Guardian revealed that she writes in a new book about the day she shot dead a hunting dog and an un-castrated goat, a revelation that ignited a political storm .
Announcing what it called its “Noem Puppy Murder Poll Findings”, New River Strategies, a Democratic firm, said 81% of Americans disapproved of Noem’s decision to shoot Cricket, a 14-month-old wire-haired pointer who Noem says ruined a pheasant hunt and killed a neighbour’s chickens, thereby earning a trip to a gravel pit to die.

‘Bulging skulls and protruding eyes’: Ten features dog owners should avoid
news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Tuesday, 9 April - 00:00
Welfare experts say people need to choose pets with natural body shapes so their health doesn’t suffer
Would-be dog owners should avoid bulging skulls, protruding eyes and shortened twisted legs and instead opt for a naturally healthy body shape, an international team of experts has urged.
The health and welfare implications of extreme canine body forms has become a pressing issue, with experts repeatedly warning of the myriad problems faced by breeds with flat faces – from breathing challenges to difficulties exercising and giving birth.
Flat-faces
Large and protruding eyes
Shortened, twisted legs
Facial or body skin folds
Lack of tail
A clearly overshot or undershot jaw
A disproportionately broad head and shoulders
Eyelids turned in or out
A bulging or domed skull
A sloped back with an excessively low rear end and excessively flexed hind legs

It didn’t feel like much of a choice.” She believes it was presented as: you have to, if you care about your rabbit.
Thinking back on it now, Taylor says the family, which did not have pet insurance, had been prepared to be pragmatic. “She was eight and a half years old; that’s quite old for a rabbit. They tend to live eight to 10 years. But we did what the vet said.”
